Liberal Democrat Election Spokesperson Lord ScrivenÂ has written a letter to Conservative Chairman Grant Schapps, challenging his party to come clean on their plans to slash Â£12bn in working-age benefits from the welfare budget.Â

Liberal Democrat Chief Secretary to the Treasury and Economic spokesman Danny Alexander has welcomed the upward revision in GDP and business investment figures for 2014, saying that they are evidence that the Liberal Democrat recovery plan is working.

At a press conference today, Leader of the Liberal Democrats Nick CleggÂ issued a stark challenge to David Cameron and Ed Miliband, asking them to answer one simple question: "Will you, or will you not, give the NHS the Â£8bn a year by 2020 that it needs and tell us how you plan to fund it?"

Liberal Democrat Foreign Affairs spokesperson Tim Farron has joined with Home Office Minister Lynne Featherstone and International Development Minister Baroness Northover to announce a manifesto commitment to promote LGBT+ rights across the globe.

Liberal Democrat Leader and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has said that he would like to see next weekâ€™s budget include as big a tax cut as possible for low and middle earners on top of tax cuts already promised.

Liberal Democrat Leader Nick Clegg has secured a government amendment that guarantees all large businessesâ€‹ will have to publish the difference between average pay for their male and female employees, despite years of Conservative resistance.

The Liberal Democrats want to build a fairer society and thatâ€™s why we are absolutely committed to the NHS. It is one of the worldâ€™s best health services with care based on need, not on your ability to pay.Â

Today Danny Alexander and I outlined the Liberal Democratsâ€™ plans for taxes, spending and borrowing for the next Parliament.

When the Liberal Democrats joined the Coalition in 2010 we had a clear priority: to rescue, repair and renew the economy. Sometimes this has meant taking difficult and unpalatable decisions. We didnâ€™t relish the prospect of austerity, but we knew it would be a means to an end â€" and the end is now in sight.

Having spoken to the police officers who recovered the bodies of those murdered by terrorists on the London Underground on 7 July 2005, I know the devastating consequences of failing to disrupt terrorism.Â

Today the House of Lords considers another in a series of proposed laws designed to keep us from terrorism.

We have seen from events last week in Paris the potential danger from terrorists.

More and more impressionable and disaffected young people are being brainwashed into travelling abroad to join groups such as the so-called â€˜Islamic Stateâ€™ where they are further indoctrinated, radicalised, trained and brutalised by the barbaric activities of such organisations.

There is a real danger that some of these British citizens may be sent back to the UK to carry out the sort of attacks we saw in Paris last week and that we saw in London on 7 July 2005.

Within hours of the momentous decision by the Scottish people to remain in the UK, Westminster found itself once again bogged down in conventional party political point scoring.

I have seen for myself the way in which the vested interests in the two old parties can conspire to block reform - scuppering elections to the House of Lords and a clean up of party funding in recent years.

Today, Liberal Democrat Leader Nick Clegg unveiledÂ a "manifesto for the next generation" launching the partyâ€™s pre-manifesto, an 80-page document that will form the backbone of the partyâ€™s 2015 election platform.

The document includes a host of policies aimed unapologetically at realising the potential of children and young people.

Liberal Democrat Leader and Deputy Prime Minister Nick CleggÂ has today launched the Liberal Democratsâ€™ 2014 European election campaign. The Liberal Democrats are now the only party truly campaigning to keep Britain IN Europe.Â Back our campaign here.Â

The Liberal Democrats are fighting to keep Britain IN Europe and protect 3 million British jobs. With UKIP trying to pull us out of Europe, and David Cameron and Ed Miliband too scared to mention Europe, it is Nick Clegg and the Liberal Democrats who are standing up for British interests and British jobs.

Today, Nick Clegg spoke at the launch of the Cityfathers, a new forum for working fathers, on the need for radical change to create equal opportunities in our parental leave system.

Nick commented on the importance of change in modern society, where we now have the highest female employment rate on record. More parents choose to both earn and share childcare responsibility, but there is still an assumption that it is the father who works and the mother who cares for the children.

Nick Clegg has today announced an extraÂ Â£300 million to help growing businesses and create tens of thousands of jobs across England.Â

The Â£300 million forms part of the Liberal Democratâ€™s Regional Growth Fund, which is now being delivered in Government. The Fund is designed to unlock billions of pounds of private sector investment and create sustainable employment and growth in a wide range of sectors across the country.
